Monthly Wrap Up | July Absolutely Flew By

July really did fly by in a blink of an eye and all of a sudden it's August. Honestly, I can't say anything exciting happened in July, so much that I almost forgot I even read any books. To my surprise I did have a somewhat great reading month, which I go in in my wrap up video!

On The Blog

PrintedWords& turned 8! I celebrated by sharing "What Blogging Means To Me Now" and hosting an international giveaway. 
It ends in a weeks time so definitely enter. Good luck!

Five new July releases I am excited for.

Monthly Wrap Up | I Completed My Reading Challenge in June!

June's come and gone and we're now into the later half of 2020, which sounds both entirely crazy but also not? I don't hold expectations for the rest of the year, in that I don't expect 2020 to turn out a certain way. Rather, I want to instead, be able to finish this year and say hey, amongst all the chaos in this world, I still set sight and worked towards the goals that I want to achieve. This leads me into announcing that I completed my 2020 reading challenge. YAY! I set a goal of 12 books to read, which isn't a lot, but in the last 6 years I've barely been able to complete a reading challenge so this makes me super happy and proud of myself. Anyways without further ado, this was my June!

Black Lives Matter. I stand by the Black community and the anti-racism fight. Systemic racism and injustice needs to be eradicated, and has to be done through collective effort. This point is a compilation of resources, donation sites, petitions, educational sources that I have come across over the past few days. A lot of these have been put together by Black people, which I am highly grateful for because the onus is really on us to seek further information and educate ourselves.

Looking Back Through March | Monthly Wrap Up

On The Blog

I had a sporadic month again. No surprises there. I also didn't commit to Top Ten Tuesday this month because there are times when I have no idea what to list under my "top ten" and it doesn't feel right to just write a post for the sake of it.

A Very Overdue Wrap Up

It is now the end of October and it's been almost 3 months since I've last shared with you guys what I've been reading/enjoying. Although to be fair I actually haven't read that much. I'm just going to do a collective wrap up of what's been on my blog and the books I've read! 

Catch Up On


Before 2016 ends check out what I enjoyed the most during the first half of the year 

I write all about why Sirius Black is my favourite character and the role he plays in the series 

It was #LoveOzYA during July and I, along with other Aussie bloggers, celebrated it through a blog hop

Get to know me more!

I shared 4 reasons why I love blogging and 4 blogging tips and celebrated with a giveaway!

See what I got up to while I was away. Trust me, there was a lot.

Marching On From March | Monthly Wrap Up

It's the end of March and I did a disappearing act. Again. Bits of posts here and there, but I'm planning and planning and planning! Lots to come, which hopefully means I'm around for longer (and consistently as well). The first month of semester is done and gone, which also means I need to start balancing work, uni and blogging - and as you guys know, that's always a struggle for me. So fingers crossed I somehow pick up my game and deliver!

Also keep an eye out for a "Talking Personal" post where I let you in on what's been happening in my life for the past month!

Not a March "thing" but something I didn't add into last month's wrap up (oops). I collected a ton of books between the end of 2015 and start of 2016, so wanted to show you guys and get excited! Let me know if you've read any of them and if they're worth reading?




Reading Time


No recap video this month. I know, slack right? I did manage to have a decent month of reading though!


Brings that to a grand total of 6 books! I actually got back into the groove of things mid-March, which got me really excited. I picked up some great reads but after finishing Illuminae I ended up having a book hangover and found nothing else interested me.

July Wrap Up

On The Blog
Seven months down and we're one step closer to the end of the year. It's kind of insane how fast time flies! This month I managed to get back into blogging and I'm so glad that there's actually some content up. I'm pretty proud of myself for sticking to my exact schedule and writing five reviews. Quick pat on the back to me!

"Top Ten Tuesday"
August has some pretty awesome new releases!

Considering I've barely read anything for the past 6 months, I was very thrilled at my progress for July!!
